That works, if JVR was to slide to the 5th round. Edit, I see Old55 explained this.

If we matched the Gold Coast bid on Andrew, that would have likely came at pick 5, we would have had nothing left to pay for JVR. I don't think we got hurt with that rule change, unless you think Mac Andrew has way more upside than JVR.

Yeah Im thinking if it was the other way around, Hawthorn 4th and Dockers 9th our games would be in Perth and Melbourne and both Hawthorn games would be in Melbourne.

So if the Dees finish 3rd and are in the same pool as Fremantle, (who finished 4th) and Hawthorn do we get the option of selecting our home game and our away game?

This cannot be compared to the wild card system the NFL apply. To earn a wild card entry teams need to have strong win/loss ratio over the season and miss the play offs because they were part of a highly competitive Division. This is just expanding the finals series and rewarding a team that finishes in the bottom half of the ladder with an opportunity to play finals. 8/18 is plenty. 10/18 does not make sense I think.

I cant think of an A grader he traded out during his time at Sydney, except for Barry Hall which was a Kirk led revolt regarding his on field behaviour. Happy to be corrected.

He said that in 2014. There was no Oliver, Petracca, Gawn, May, Lever or Kozzie going around then.

Next weeks team Brown - Not going in. Billings - Not going in

Who else? I know Star Wars is the movie you are referring to but I have never seen it. I think you will need to find someone to play the key protagonist in the Paul Roos signing. Someone to play Kevin Dyson.

Not so good at the Jets this year.

Was sure it was a touched ball. Happy to be corrected.

My memory here is a Robert Walls goal would have opened up 5th spot for the Dees, instead it was touched on the line by Bernie Quinlan resulting in a drawn game giving Footscray the 2 pts that kept them in 5th spot.

My Mum took me to the football Round 1 1965. She was a passionate Dees fan and I had no option but to be a Dees fan. Instantly fell in love growing up with, at various times, 29, 26, 24 and 19 on my back. In 69 when Greg Wells came along it was 11. My son as well had no option other than to be a Dees fan. He has been a member since birth. Over the journey there were times when he asked me why have you done this to me. He was up against it being the only Dees fan as a Grammar school in the North/Western suburbs. But he simply loved them and remained loyal. As another poster pointed out 25/9/2021 has wiped away all the misery. It certainly has. We sit together in the tridents and travel interstate together for games which is great fun. The MFC is a real part of the bond we have. We even went and got premiership tattoos. (My only tattoo). I say to people the 21 premiership changed my life forever. Most cannot understand my sentiment.

From the famous let her rip Red Cloud episode.

I crashed first 4 times. After that let me in. Got N11.
